Providence Zip 02904
Environment/Geography and Family Life
The Providence community of the zip code 02904 is located close to the capital and populated city of Providence, Rhode Island. This area is north of the city but still in proximity. This particular zip code is urban like other areas of Providence. It has a large athletic complex including two baseball fields as well as tennis and basketball courts. Houses in the neighborhoods have large yards and some have pools. On the outskirts of the neighborhoods are restaurants and stores including Sammy's House of Pizza and Sandwich Shops. Some main roads through this area are Lexington Avenue, Charles Street, and Mineral Spring Avenue.
Family life in this region is slightly different from the Rhode Island average. The average value for a home is $116,500. About half of the households are single parent families and 40 percent are households below the poverty level. 6 percent of these households have their finances taken care of by grandparents. The family life directly affects the community in the 02904 area.
Nice start, Robin. Can you name some of the neighborhoods that exist in this zipcode and maybe the streets at serve as it boundaries? The paragraphs about income etc should be pretty straightforward to write. Begin with a summarizing topic sentence, followed by the stats and either a conclusion or a transition sentence. - fogleman Oct 11, 2010
